What is the osmolarity of a solution made by dissolving 0.50 mole of the strong electrolyte cacl2 in 1.0 l of solution?

1 answer:

6 0

Osmolarity=osmole of the solute/litres of the solution
ionic equation for dissociation of CaCl2 is
CaCl2--->Ca2+ +2Cl-
total osmoles for reaction are 1(Ca2+) + 2(Cl-)= 3 osmoles
therefore

0.50 moles of CaCl2 x 3 osmoles/ 1mole of CaCl2 = 1.5osmoles
osmolarity=1.5 /1.0 L=1.5 osmol/l

Why is the base of an energy pyramid wider than the top

Zepler [3.9K]

It is due to a lack of providable energy to the next trophic level of the energy pyramid. Primary consumers only obtain around 10% of energy that producers have, and the energy depletes as you move further and further up the food chain, until you reach the tertiary consumers which have the least amount of energy at their disposal, meaning there are less of them than other organisms further down the energy pyramid.

What is the frequency of a wave that has 3 waves every five seconds?

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 0.6 Hz

Explanation:

We have,

Number of waves passing through a point are 3

Time for which the waves are passing is 5 seconds

It is required to find the frequency of a wave. The frequency of a wave is defined as the no of waves per unit time. So,

$f=\dfrac{n}{t}\\\\f=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\f=0.6\ Hz$

So, the frequency of a wave is 0.6 Hz.

*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!<br> Why is it difficult for us to use fusion reactions to produce energy?

kolbaska11 [484]

Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. Neither do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.
